Combine that with our 4 day off language, and you can see why the lines can't be built above 76-78 hours average.
But why isn't the 5 day off in the system to be consider as per the contract?,
wouldn't that force the system to a more efficient parings to stay above the set hrs for the lines?
...Or would that cause the lines to loose credit?
